In this dazzling Victorian romance from a New York Times bestselling author, one unlucky lady believes her fate is finally changing until the rake that broke her heart returns to town-perfect for fans of Julia Quinn and Amanda Quick. Third time's a charm? For Lady Kay Matheson, it had better be. Her first engagement was a failed elopement; the second ruined by gossip about the first. Resigned to be a disgraced spinster, no one is more surprised than Kay when an American millionaire offers for her hand.
Just when she's convinced she will finally make it down the aisle, the scoundrel who broke her heart arrives with his own fiancée. Devlin Sharpe has finally become a success. He has wealth, connections, and a lovely bride-to-be-and he won't let an old flame derail all his hard work. But it turns out time has not dampened his grudge toward Kay-or the desire sparking between them. And one searing kiss threatens to ruin their wedding plans and their futures, and make Kay the bad-luck bride all over again.
